Enhanced Efficiency of Functional Smart Window with Solar Wavelength Conversion Phosphor-Photochromic Hybrid Film.

ABSTRACT: Here, the high sensitivity and enhanced photochromic efficiency of the hybrid film of solar wavelength conversion phosphor and photochromic film for functional smart window have been achieved by fabricating a double-layered hybrid structure of wavelength conversion phosphor and photochromic film. Y₂SiO₅:Pr³⁺ phosphor nanoparticles, which upconvert visible light to UV light, were synthesized by simple hydrothermal method. The synthesized Y₂SiO₅:Pr³⁺ nanoparticle was coated as layered structured film on photochromic H₃PW₁₂O₄₀ film. The Y₂SiO₅:Pr³⁺/H₃PW₁₂O₄₀ hybrid film showed an enhanced sensitivity and efficiency of photochromic
